Fitting into a standard shipment container, the "Smart Brewery"
made in Prague by the Well Service company can produce up to 525
hectolitres of beer, or 2,000 pints a week.
"We wanted to make a brewery that would be mobile, possible to
deliver anywhere in the world, with a simple use and not
space-demanding," Pavel Pozivil from the Well Service said.
"You can put it anywhere on a solid surface, link to water and
electricity sources, and you can start brewing," he said.
The complete set costs 2.7 million crowns ($124,000).
Well Service has already agreed a delivery to Russia, and it is
in negotiations in Thailand, Tanzania and other countries.
By capacity, the Smart Brewery ranks far below even the
mini-breweries that have sprung up in dozens of Czech towns in
recent years. But it could suffice as an additional offer on
tap, as it does for the owner of the Gourmeta pub in Prague.
"When you follow the procedure and you have a good recipe, then
it is no problem to brew an excellent beer," said Radek Spacil,
a co-owner of Gourmeta, which completed its first brew with the
Smart Brewery on Sept 2.
